New report: ‘The Sky’s The Limit’ finds huge falls in the cost of #solar & #wind power have unlocked an energy reserve that can meet world demand 100x over! Most is already economic compared with #FossilFuels carbontracker.org/reports/the-sk…

At current growth rates, #renewables will push #FossilFuels out of the electricity sector by 2035, & 2050 could see a world powered entirely by electricity. Author @KingsmillBond says: “we're entering a new era, comparable to the industrial revolution” carbontracker.org/reports/the-sk…

.@KingsmillBond continued: "Geopolitics will be transformed as nations are freed from expensive imports of #coal, #oil & #gas. Clean #renewables will free the planet from the impact of fossil fuel pollution." carbontracker.org/reports/the-sk…

Opportunities are greatest in emerging markets which have the highest #solar & #wind potential relative to domestic demand. #Africa has 39% of global potential & could become a #renewables superpower carbontracker.org/reports/the-sk…

Don't have time to read the full 'The Sky's The Limit' report on the global potential of #wind & #solar energy? @marghegagliardi has you covered with this #infographic summarising the key findings👇carbontracker.org/reports/the-sk…

The 2020's will be a decade of rapid change. A rising tide of #renewables will confront a sinking #FossilFuel island - as sector after sector is disrupted. #EnergyTransition
